You can always phone ICI in Americar and ask them for the paint formulation for WW1, just tell them make, model, and year, then have it made here to that formulation, thats what i did a few years ago
Are we there yet dad ..... 10 to the gallon but worth it.

Just don't assume that if someone does have a formula for WW1 over here it will necessarily be 100% accurate.

Not a problem if you don't need an exact match (repainting whole car) and you're not worried about having a different shade to other WW1's.

But if you are, get a sample mixed up first and check the match.
Or do like ashley said, get a chromograph (I made up that word but I I think it's something similar!!)

Hmmmm...WW1 is white I see. Maybe that is easier to match?
